All kinds of Father’s Day gifts for all kinds of dads

Picture this — it’s June 16, you wake up to the perfect Sunday morning, birds are chirping outside and you have no work! If you’re a late riser, it’s noon and your mom’s probably banging on the door. But it’s cool — you’re a loner and that means you only have your parents to worry about on Sundays.

Wait! You’re a loner and you only have your parents to worry about on Sundays? It’s June 16… Your dad’s probably home. Why is an alarm bell ringing in your head?

You switch on your phone and Google “June 16” and lo and behold, you realise you’ve done it again! Another year of forgetting it’s Father’s Day. At least your dad can praise you this year for being so consistent with forgetting occasions dedicated to him. Or perhaps he too has forgotten about his big day, especially given the attention it gets compared to Mother’s Day.

Believe it or not, Father’s Day isn’t as hyped up as Mother’s Day and while we acknowledge that mothers need to be pampered for everything they’re made to endure, fathers needn’t be sidelined — especially the good ones, the funny ones (who don’t crack jokes about their wives), the giving ones, the hardworking ones, the ones who live up to society’s absurd standards for men without sharing their struggles.

So before it completely slips your mind, mark your calendars for June 16 and give your main man a gift he deserves. You can choose to spend on experiences but because fathers are so moody — and tired on Sundays — keep a present on hand to make his day extra special!

We’ve compiled a list of gifts so you don’t have to go searching for what to get him:
